The mute turtle has been locking himself in his room since he entered the hotel, and he has not come out to eat dinner.

When Chu Tianlu called a young waiter in the hotel to open the door of the dumb turtle, he saw the dumb turtle standing quietly in the window and staring out.

I don't know if he didn't hear the door open, or if he didn't care who entered the house at all, the mute turtle kept a position motionless. It looked like an eternal stone statue, and the outside world had nothing to do with him.

After the waiter opened the door, he saw a person standing in the room, and he was about to ask out loud with a surprised face, but was stopped by Chu Tianlu in time and signaled her to leave.

The young waitress didn't say anything when she saw this, but it was not difficult to see from her face that there must be a complaint in her heart at this moment.

After receiving Chu Tianlu's instructions, she looked back at the mute turtle in the room, her lips slightly upturned and muttered silently, seeing that the situation should be that the dumb turtle in the room did not open the door and let her run in person.

After the waiter left, Chu Tianlu gently closed the door, did not speak, and came to the dumb turtle to look out the window with him.

At this time, it was already bright outside.

This border town isn't bustling, but it's lively, which may have something to do with its unique location. A large part of the people who come and go here are unfortunate people, who shuttle between the two countries to resell the specialties on both sides to earn the difference in the middle, and the profits earned in a year are also quite considerable.

Chu Tianlu and the dumb turtle stood quietly in front of the window like this, as if they had already ignored each other's existence. After more than half an hour, the dumb turtle, which had remained motionless, finally opened its mouth.

"Why do you believe me?"

"I don't know!!"

The two spoke briefly and then fell into silence.

At this moment, Chu Tianlu actually had a lot of things in his heart that he wanted to ask the dumb turtle, but he didn't know how to ask when he looked at the dumb turtle in front of him. Perhaps at this moment, the dumb turtle's heart is thinking about how to say the same to himself.

"My name is Wu Shiyu. I don't know how to make clear what the old man said before. I've never been friends with anyone in my memory.

The word friend is just a title for me.

Sometimes, I even wonder if I'm a normal human being!! What the old man said that day plunged me back into this problem that had plagued me for years. ”

Chu Tianlu listened to the mute turtle's narration silently, and felt a sour feeling in his heart for no reason, what he heard from the dumb turtle's words was a kind of vicissitudes and deep loneliness.

Chu Tianlu couldn't have imagined that this man, who looked much younger than himself, had experienced something that would make him feel so lonely.

The mute turtle's eyes never withdrew from the window, and after a moment of silence, he continued: "You should know by now that I approached you for a purpose, right? Are you particularly curious about how I know the secret of Lu Laoliu's deep heart?

Let me tell you a story!!

A long, long time ago, there was an emperor who used many means to achieve the goal of immortality, but he could not achieve the effect.

When his hopes are gone, a warlock appears to him and tells him that there is another way to live forever.

At this time, the emperor suddenly regained his confidence, and in order to achieve his goal of immortality, he relied on the words of the warlock in everything, even if it was the strength of the whole country.

I never thought that this warlock was actually a scheming person, and he took advantage of the emperor's greed to secretly try to achieve his own selfishness.

The emperor knew nothing of this, and when everything was done according to the warlock's method, the emperor's lifespan was indeed extended, but the consequences were heavy.

The emperor's children and grandchildren left him one after another, and at this time he was still immersed in the joy of being able to live forever. It wasn't until another warlock passed by his ancestral hall one day and said fourteen words that the emperor came to his senses.

The warlock said: Riding the dragon is a bad game, and the lord will cut off his children and grandchildren, and this is a desperate situation.

When this word reached the ears of the emperor, he was furious and immediately ordered the arrest of this person to be executed in public.

Unexpectedly, just before the emperor's order was sent out of the main hall, the warlock himself took the initiative to come to the palace and said that he could resolve the crisis for him.

The emperor at this time had the heart to hear this, and immediately put him on death row, waiting for him to be slashed at the entrance of the city at noon the next day, as a sign of those who had evil intentions.

The warlock seemed to know this, and did not resist, and said twenty-eight more words.

Riding a dragon gathers yin qi and steals rui qi to enjoy future generations. The children and grandchildren will lose their longevity, and three out of a hundred will return to the dust.

When a minister heard the meaning of these words, he immediately persuaded the emperor to interrogate him first, so as not to make a big mistake.

Although the emperor did not think so, he also wanted to hear why this arrogant man dared to speak falsely. So the sorcerer was escorted to the main hall.

At this time, the emperor had already lived a hundred and two, and he was only a few days away from being one hundred and three years old. The warlock who prayed for his longevity had already sacrificed himself to the gods when the last tomb was built many years ago. Therefore, the emperor also heavily sealed his children and grandchildren, so that they could enjoy eternal wealth and hereditary titles.

When the emperor asked the warlock why he didn't dare to talk nonsense, the warlock laughed and said: "As a warlock, you can't kill people with a knife, your crown has been cursed."

Is the warlock who screened the tombs of your children and grandchildren still there? Why are only your children and grandchildren who have died among your people all these years?

This peer is really a master of Xuanmen!! The scale of his dragon riding game is astonishing. Because of this, ordinary people will not get a glimpse of the secrets.

Let me just say a little bit, among your people, why only your children and grandchildren died mysteriously, while the other side branches all died naturally.

I'm telling you, it's all thanks to this dragon-riding trick. This master uses his own means to bury his family's lifeline on your dragon vein, so that he can steal the auspicious qi to protect his children and grandchildren.

If my expectations are correct, this person must have committed a heavenly taboo, and if he does not find Rui Qi to protect his family's lifeline, his family will definitely disappear from the world.

And the reason why you have survived so long is actually that he has left you a glimmer of life in the bad situation, so that you can be convinced, so that you will never know the truth.

The sinister nature of this person's intentions is really breathtaking!!

According to my investigation, your lifespan should have been eighty-four years old, and you have essentially used the longevity of your descendants to maintain it until now. Now, there are no children or grandchildren left, and the side branches of your clan will also be affected by this situation and will die one after another.

But their death won't have any effect on your longevity, because their rui qi is not enough to support your consumption. So I see that one hundred and three years old will be the end of your life.

If you don't take action now, your clan will be wiped out after you die. Why do I dare to risk my life to tell the truth, it's just that I think that God has the virtue of a good life, and I can't bear that the great good of your past life will become the great evil of this life.

The warlock's words not only did not attract the attention of the emperor, but made him furious, and ordered him to be taken to the prison to await capital punishment.

These words did not attract the attention of others, but one person was full of surprise. This person is none other than the nephew of the imperial clan.

He didn't dare to comment on the warlock's words in front of the emperor, but after exiting the main hall, the first thing he did was to disguise himself and go to death prison to ask about the matter.

He is not worried about the life and death of the emperor, he is worried about the survival of the entire family. From what he saw in the palace just now, it is obvious that the royal ruler does not care about the survival of the family, he only cares about his own longevity.

If it is as the warlock said, then this will also be the key to the survival of their family, if they don't do something, then their children and grandchildren may be the next to die.

When he came to the prison, he didn't go directly to the warlock. Instead, he peeked through the chamber and was surprised to see the warlock's facial expression. For there was not a trace of panic or panic and fear in his face.

This also made him hesitate, could this warlock really be a madman as the emperor said? Otherwise, how could he be so calm and calm in the death row that everyone heard about?

You know, it would have been a crime of disobedience for him to steal a prisoner on death row to see him, and if this man was really a master, and he had saved the entire family by getting some guidance from him, then his risk would have been worth it.

But if this person is just a crazy person who talks nonsense, he will ruin his future, and if he doesn't do it, he may even invite a catastrophe.

Just as he hesitated, the warlock spoke alone. It seemed like he was talking to himself, and it was as if he was saying it to himself.

If you want to avoid this disaster, finding your roots is the first priority. Changing a name or surname can be expedient.

When he heard the warlock say this, his heart shook. Obviously, this is for myself.

He wondered how he knew about his existence when he was hiding in the dark room, could he really be a master? If that's the case, if I don't go to him now to ask him about it, where will I have the opportunity to ask him after tomorrow's execution.

So he decided to take a gamble, knowing that the ancients believed in this piece.

When he came to the warlock, to his surprise, he didn't say anything again. Just told him a place to look for the man.

In desperation, he had no choice but to leave his cell and rush to where he said he was, for it was already dawn when almost all the mountain roads arrived.

When he looked back at the road, he found that he had reached the top of the mountain, only to see peaks and mountains everywhere, and clouds and mist shrouded everywhere. The strange rocks and strange stones on the mountain are densely forested, the large and small karst caves are deep and secluded, the spiritual springs and holy pools are dotted everywhere, the winding streams are criss-crossed and intertwined, the green trees cover the mountains, the green bamboos are luxuriant, and I can't help but sigh that this place is really a paradise. ”
